I have a dual monitor setup on XP Pro SP2 and I'm trying to get different screen savers on each monitor. My video card is a NVIDIA GeForce 6600 GT. Ultramon is v2.7.1
The main ss screen has Ultramon set as the screen saver. In the UltraMoin SS screen I have the primary monitor set to the Euphoria saver and the secondary monitor to the Helios saver. Both show in the small preview panes. The secondary (Helios) has the preview mode box checked and grayed out.
If I click on preview (either monitor selected) I get a <1 second flash of the Helios saver on the second monitor then the Euphoria appears stretched over both screens. When coming off SS preview the Euphoria disappears and the Helios pops up for <1 second and then the desktop comes back. This is the same as I get when the SS kicks in/out after the wait period is exceeded.
I get the same behaviour with std XP screen savers, IE 3D Text & 3D Flowerbox.
What have I missed?

To fix this, check 'preview mode' for the screen saver on the primary monitor as well.
The problem is that Euphoria and the XP screen savers have multi-monitor support, if they're not run in preview mode they'll run on both monitors instead of only on the primary.
